Please, help me!

I don't know what you did, but there are some "Restore defaults" commands in the IDE configuration dialogs.

If you undocked the component palette from the CoolBar (but I don't know if this is possible at all...) you could try "Tools" > "Options" > "Environment" > "IDE Coolbar" > "Restore defaults".

In the same dialog there is also page "Environment" > "Component palette" with another "Restore defaults" - but I think this refers to the arrangement of the palette pages and icons.

The next one will probably fix the issue, but destroy your other settings: Go to "View" > "IDE Internals" > "About IDE". In line "Primary config directory" find out in which directory the IDE stores your settings. Close Lazarus, rename this config folder (so that you can return to the current settings), restart the IDE --> default settings will be created in which the component palette should be correct again. You must manually restore your other settings, and you must re-install your extra components afterwards, however.

Ow Thanks!

I'll do it. Restore buttons didn't work, I already tried, but it not applies to Component Palette.

It looks like you maximized your component palette form. Please try to use the form buttons to unmaximize the form. Or use the mouse to adjust the form height

@Gald
Please do the following:
1. Download attached zip file, extract archive
2. Go to Menu->Tools->Desktop->Import
3. Import extracted IDE_Layout.xml
4. Make sure the "Default docked" is the active desktop(it should be by default)
5. Close the Desktop dialog
6. Restart IDE

Every time you make some changes to the desktop, always export it. It's much easier to restore at a later time.

Ps: I assume that anchordocking_dsgn is installed.
